Redownloading problem
I don’t know what’s happening but all of sudden I have to redownload all the dictionaries. Fine, I did it, but then after a few days I have to do it again? A joke that’s not very funny I fear. I doubt it’s my problem because I know some other friends having the same problem.
There’s another problem. Why it becomes so rigid that the words that I’ve bookmarked MUST be retrieved with the dictionary I was using when I bookmarked it? For example, if I bookmark a word X when I read about X from Advanced learner’s dictionary (8e), then, strangely, without downloading Advanced learner’s dictionary (8e), I can’t open the bookmark with Advanced learner’s dictionary (9e), even presumably 9e is better than 8e (correct me if I’m wrong). After all these recent crazy changes of the app, I’m really not sure if I’m going continue my subscription after the expiration of the current one. I’ll keep an eye on how the app is going to improve (or not).
Not worth it
I paid for the dictionary but after a few years they decided discontinue to update the app with the latest IOS. And now they ask you to subscribe yearly? How many “new” words you can find in a year for us to “subscribe” to? It's a freaking dictionary, not a Netflix channel.
need your imperative help
I’ve subbed 1 year and it all worked so well.
but all of a sudden, just minutes ago, my subscription popped out and failed to be loaded.
Please fix it, really appreciate
